There are obviously other issues and bugs still open, but these are the onesthat are really "blocking" the release. To give enough time to fix theseissues, we've extended the release date 6 days to Tuesday, Oct 17th. Freezesare still in place (even more so now). Your extra careful testing of rawhideover the next few days would greatly be appreciated.

Over the weekend we ran into a few more bugs with Fedora Core 6 that wedecided were important enough to fix. There were some multilib composeissues (wrong packages landing in the wrong dirs), some translation filesthat would cause tracebacks in things like anaconda (whoops), and afedora-release package that forgot to enable updates (double whoops). Forthese reasons and a few others, we decided to respin the release candidatetree and push the release date out another couple of days.

The current plan is to spin a release candidate this evening with some lastminute fixes, and start the sync. Validation has gone very well up to thispoint and baring any blow ups in the spin process, the release looks verysolid. We're planning to release on Thursday Oct 19th. This should give themirrors enough days to sync up. If things blow up horribly and we have tospin again tomorrow, depending on what time we have to respin we may slipuntil next week, as releasing on Fridays or Mondays gets you the wrath of themirror admins (:

I want to thank you all for playing along and helping us to make FC6 the bestrelease yet!
